Language is actually a power similar to magic.
Whether it is sincere recognition and praise, or malicious curses, they have directly touched the human heart and played a role of buff or debuff.
Call it self-hypnosis, but who hasn’t rejoiced in the sweet words of love
At this time, Lu Xidong did not understand the powerful language magic power he possessed as a demon. He was sitting in the small square where the goblin lair was, waiting to name the goblins who were queuing up. .
The first one is, of course, the leader of the goblins.
In fact, if you look closely, you can see that the goblin leader's outfit is different from that of ordinary goblins. He wears a necklace made of unknown animal teeth around his neck, which should be a symbol of the leader's identity.
"Gulu," the Goblin leader knelt in front of Lu Xidong and made the sound of swallowing saliva again. He looked very nervous. As a wild low-level monster, the Goblin was not qualified to become a member of the demon clan. There is no demon army that accepts goblins as its combat force. Only "newborns" like Lu Xidong would agree to accept goblins.
"We will swear allegiance to you to the death. From now on, as your people, we will fight for you and fight for you, life and death." Among the noisy goblins, only the human language spoken by the leader could be understood by Lu Xidong.
A very simple oath, but even so, it is an infinitely binding word. Even if the group of monsters who finally surrender to you betray them, they will leave guilt in their hearts, become a stain on their integrity, and be spurned by other monsters.
This is the power of language. The moment these words are spoken, the contract is automatically concluded and will stay with you until death.
"Guluwa." This is the name given to the Goblin leader. This guy will make a "Gulu" sound when he is nervous. The word "Wa" is added to distinguish him from the Gollum in "The Lord of the Rings".
"Thank you... thank you, master." The Goblin leader's voice trembled with excitement, and even his facial muscles were shaking slightly, and his joy was beyond words.
... Lu Xidong was a little confused. He obviously chose the name casually without using any brain cells. Why was the other party so happy
That strong feeling even made him feel a little guilty. Did he treat his first batch of subordinates too much
What happened next surprised Lu Xidong even more.
"Uh..." Guluwa suddenly bent down, murmured in a low voice, and curled up on the ground. In the limited light of the bonfire, a black mist enveloped him.
"What... what happened?" Now it was Lu Xidong's turn to be scared. Could it be that he did something wrong
He reached out to pull Guluwa, but before his fingers touched the black mist, Lu Xidong hesitated because the picture was so weird that he had no clue.
Looking back for Yundi, I found that the female magician had gone to bed. This girl, who was ridiculed by Lu Xidong as "even goblins despise being ugly", was having trouble with him.
Just when he was hesitating whether to call Yundi, the black fog in front of him dissipated, and a large green-skinned goblin appeared in it.
The goblin stood up. Lu Xidong's visual inspection revealed that it was at least 180 centimeters tall, and the tips of its towering ears almost reached his shoulders.
"Guluwa greets the master!" The eldest brother Bulin knelt down again and bowed to Lu Xidong. You could see that there was an obvious dark mark on him, which was exactly the same as the one on Lu Xidong's forehead.
"Guluwa?"
Lu Xidong didn't know why, but when he was sure that the other party was really his new little brother, he was overjoyed. This was really an unexpected surprise.
In fact, this is because Lu Xidong does not understand the magic rules of this other world. Ordinary monsters have no names, so no matter how different the individuals are, they can only be recognized as a group. This is what Goblins represent. A group of goblins and ogres are the general name for a large group of ogres.
Once an individual is given a name by a high-level demon, it means that it will become a "unique Goblin" that can be recognized individually from the name of this group, and the corresponding magic power, attributes, and levels will all improved accordingly.
Another reason is that once you become a member of the demon clan, it means that the attached monster will become the destiny community of the demon clan. Lu Xidong's magic power will naturally be injected into Guluwa's body, thus completing the evolution of the monster. The weak goblin evolves into a big goblin in one fell swoop.
Later, as Lu Xidong himself further strengthens, his demon clan relatives will also evolve accordingly.
"Awesome..." Compared with the other goblins, the Guluwa in front of him was completely from two races, the strong "Hulk" and the thin "Wu Dalang". The contrast was so strong that Lu Xidong couldn't wait to do the naming homework. Keep going.
"Shuan Zhu", "Er Gou", "Tiedan"... Lu Xidong applied all the nicknames he could think of to each goblin. He couldn't communicate with them anyway, just to induce each other to evolve.
As for female goblins, they have more feminine names like "Xiaofang", "Xiaolan", and "Xiaofen". To be honest, giving so many names at once really made Lu Xidong's brain cells die. A lot of them.
"Are you okay, Master?" Guluwa asked with concern as he looked at Lu Xidong slumped there. He thought Lu Xidong had consumed too much magic power.
"Yeah, no problem." Lu Xidong tried his best to straighten his posture and signaled the other party not to worry, but in his heart he felt that it was not easy for those who made money by naming people.
The seventy-eight goblins in the tribe, regardless of male or female, old or young, all got their own names. Each one completed their evolution, but at this time the individual differences became apparent. The originally strong guys got There has been a large improvement, while the changes in the thin and female goblins are relatively small.
Of course, the one who has evolved the most is the leader Guluwa, whose small animal skin covering his lower body is almost bursting.
The female goblin only uses worn-out animal skins to cover her body. Due to evolution, she has become convex and forward, making her look very sexy.
However... the Goblin's appearance still did not fit Lu Xidong's inherent aesthetics.
Of course, these are all details. The most important thing now is to drive away the ogres and protect "my" territory, right? Lu Xidong has regarded this area as his own private property.
"Guluwa, count how many goblin warriors we have that can fight?"
"Yes, master... there are about sixty of them that can fight, including females." The communication between the goblins was very fast. Guluwa quickly confirmed the tribe's combat strength. The remaining ones were old men. Weak, sick and disabled.
"What about our enemies?" Lu Xidong understood the principle of knowing oneself and the enemy and asked next.
"Generally speaking, even if the ogres fight alone, our clan may not win even if we send ten of them... But now it seems that three of them can barely fight." Battles between monsters happen from time to time, Guluwa based on past experiences Judging from experience, "But this time the ogres are migrating on a large scale for unknown reasons. According to the information obtained by our clan's scouts, there should be hundreds of them..."
Hundreds of ogres? The ratio of three to one means that more than 300 Goblins are needed. The current combat power is far from enough. Lu Xidong pondered: "Remember you said that there are several similar Goblin groups around here?"
"Yes, but most of them are fighting on their own. The conflict between us is probably much greater than that between us and the ogres." Guruva lowered his head in embarrassment.
The more similar people are, the less they can tolerate each other, and the more conflicts of interest there are between them. In Lu Xidong's past life, too many similar situations happened, but he didn't expect that humans are like this, goblins. The same is true between.
"Then there is nothing we can do. In my name, Lu, issue an ultimatum to the nearby Goblin tribe." Lu Xidong paused, "Those who obey will join us to fight against the ogres; those who are unwilling to respond will not Will receive any assistance from us."
"As you command, Master." Guluwa turned around and arranged for his tribe to deliver Lu Xidong's message to the goblins in all directions.
After a busy night, the sun peeked out slightly in the east, and its light was about to return to the earth.
Goblins are nocturnal monsters, and they naturally hide in their lairs again during the day. The camp has returned to calm, with only the dozing Lu Xidong still sitting deep in the jungle.
Amidst the silence, there was a faint fishy smell, which was the calm before the storm.
A big war is about to begin...
